dareus refuses to be derailed


Recommended Posts

Dareus will probably be a really solid DT. He's a good pick, no doubt about it.

It's too bad there is this little thing called 'scoring', which is required to win american football games. It's too bad also that the offense does this, and a DT doesn't line up in offensive formations. And it's too bad we had the worst QB play in the history of our franchise last year and are in need of a QB 100 times more than a DT.

Dareus will be a great pickup for Denver, or maybe Cincci.

Love the kid, love the story, Would love to have him as our #1 pick. For some reason I now think of the movie the blind side when I hear of Dareus. The kid will come to the NFL to play, He will be a hard worker and thats what will make him a good NFL player. I honestly would love to pick him over Fairley and Newton but our offense is what we really need to improve and I would honestly feel better picking Green or Peterson with our first pick. So many tough decisions with so little time.

Which is exactly what Dareus is there to prevent other teams from doing :)

Dareus also is humble. When he was the MVP of Alabama's win over Texas in the 2010 national championship game, he didn't party afterward like a rock star. He hung out with his family at the team hotel, playing pool and reminiscing until it was time to go to sleep.

We'd be stupid to pass on Dareus if we stay at #1. Also, to address the whole scoring issue, if you can't stop an offense you have to match them in points and Cam Newton alone can't do that. Anybody who thinks so is pipe dreaming or has the ghey for him.

There's nothing wrong with our defense. We could always get a DT FA. or 3rd round.

    • The coach- Canales was a rookie hc and at times looked like it. But he did manage to revamp the offense, helped Bryce not look like the biggest bust of the draft, exuded positivity,  and made the panthers watchable again. We have a viable head coach for the first time since rivera The gm- Morgan had some hits and some big misses. Hits- the ol, Coker,demani, dj at first. Misses- almost every d player signed, brooks, the jury is out on x. I get what he was trying to do with brooks/Hubbard but it blew up in his face. Hopefully he learns from his mistakes. But he did trade mingo for a 4th, managed to get a 2nd rounder this year from the Rams and I am a fan of constantly churning the bottom of the roster The draft- x can be a solid player but not until he catches the ball, brooks was a high risk pick that didn't work out, Wallace, demani and Chau Smith can be solid contributors and showed glimpses, Coker and jt should be mainstays. And flipping a 7th round lb that was about to be cut for Jackson was a great move.  The offense- had its ups and downs but Bryce has turned from one of the biggest busts in nfl history to a potential franchise qb, that change is worth its weight in gold, thielen was crafty and underrated as usual, Coker was a gem, jt was the solid but has some growing to do, and Hubbard has been awesome, the o line was much improved as well The defense- well...they set records, injuries, poor coaching (imo), bad playcalling and just plain sucking this defense needs everything to change, we need horn and Jackson back and we get brown back but we need bodies and an identity. If they can do with the def what they did with the o then we can challenge for the division bc we already have some pieces there.  Overall- this was a growth year full of questions and some of the major ones were answered(qb, coach). For the first time in a long time the season didn't end depressingly and I do have cautious optimism for next year. But they need to learn from the mistakes of 2024 and if they do I like where this team is headed. On to the draft and 2025
    • I disagree. It’s not hard to double a WR and still play the run. It’s called a bracket which you can use with a drop down safety or an OLB. Look up how it’s done. Also in obvious passing situations, doubling a wr is not hard. Falcons torched us in obvious passing situations time after time. 2 min drill, 3rd and long to where there’s no excuse to not focus more on Drake London. Mooney was out. London was the only WR Penix was looking at.  Evero simply can’t make adjustments. He’ll most likely be fired next year. Wish we would’ve just ripped the bandaid off this year. To call all people morons who think we can do better than Evero is a very ignorant and arrogant statement. Who the hell are you? 
    • As a rookie head coach, I think he exceeded expectations.  We looked competitive in almost all our games.  I don't think he's hit his ceiling.  7 of 10 for this year.
